Do i need to change the rods? get some forged conrods asap, its not worth the risk i got a high comp engine limited to 8200 rpm, and its on forged conrods ( watch out for sizes on the gugeon pin fitment as my rods had to be re-bushed original sizes were too big. ________________________________________ my car's spending all my money grrrrrrrrrr |
